He can't explain why he does it. I asked him what he thinks about when he's falling asleep. He said that he thinks about playing with his little brother and toys and then his mind goes empty and he falls asleep. So, if he is thinking of something stressful while he's falling asleep, he isn't telling me.
We had a heart to heart (at least I think so) today and he doesn't seem worried or concerned about the baby at all. Or worried about anything really. But he is anxious for the baby to come. He is so excited that he can hardly stand it. So although the anxiousness is in a positive way, maybe that's what is causing it.
When I'd talked to the therapist the other day, he told me not to say anything. To keep low key and observe for now. He said it isn't going to kill him so we need to be patient and see what's causing it. He said for all we know, it may only last a week and then he's done with it. It's hard for me to sit back and do nothing though.
On the other hand, first words out of the psych's mouth was "Let me prescribe him so Prozac, he's stressed." I got mad. I'm not putting my kid on Prozac at the first sign of stress. I hate how society thinks you can solve everything by popping a pill.
